This little device, combined with Amazon Prime, makes a pretty awesome media center and gives you access to over 200,000 television episodes and movies. So, if you want to know how to hack your amazon fire stick follow our simple guide below.

Not only that, you don’t need to jailbreak or hack your Amazon Firestick in order to install Kodi. This easy-to-do secret will have Kodi installed to your Amazon Fire TV Stick in less than 10 minutes.

Before you install Kodi on Fire TV and start streaming potentially illegal content, it is highly recommended to sign up for a VPN. IPVanish is cheap and works amazingly well at hiding your identity online, while also preventing your internet service provider from throttling your download speeds and blocking you from accessing streaming servers. ISP issues are the number one reason for Kodi errors and buffering issues. Enjoy a better Kodi experience with an IPVanish VPN.

It’s gotten much easier to install Kodi to your Firestick and Fire TV without a computer. If you are running the new Amazon OS 5.0+ and are installing Kodi Krypton 17, follow the video or slideshow below for the easiest way of installing Kodi Krypton to your Firestick and Fire TV.

Instructions for installing Kodi 17.4 Krypton on Amazon Fire OS 5

If you have a previous version of Kodi installed on your Firestick or Fire TV, you need to uninstall it before proceeding. The add-ons are not compatible with this new version of Kodi.

Hack Your Firestick and FireTV System Settings

Make sure your firestick or fire TV is on and connected to the internet. From the menu go to Settings>Device>Developer Options

Turn ONADB debugging and turn ONApps from Unknown Sources

Install Downloader App

Click on the Search icon from your Fire TV’s home screen and type in Downloader. Make sure to type the entire name, select it and hit Enter to be able to find it and install. Downloader does not show up in Amazon’s suggested search results. Install and open Downloader.

Download and Install Kodi

Clear the first screen and you’ll immediately see a place to type in the URL to download Kodi. Type in http://kodi.tv/downloadand select GO.

Kodi’s website will open up inside of Downloader, you can use your firestick remote to control the red circle on the screen. Select the Green Android logo and on the next page select the button that says “ARMV7A(32BIT)” Kodi Krypton 17.4 will immediately start downloading.

When it’s done downloading, click Install at the bottom of your screen. Kodi will take a minute or so to install and when it is finished click OPEN. Kodi will then run it’s initial setup process. This usually takes a minute or two, depending on if there are Kodi updates it needs to install before running.

Once Kodi is done preparing the first run it will open up and you’ll see a list of categories on the left sidebar. Before you can begin installing cool video add-ons that will provide links to stream cable tv and movies, you need to change your settings in Kodi. Move your cursor to the very top cog-wheel icon with the blue circle around in the image below. This is your Kodi System button. Select the “System” icon and then click on “System Settings” on the next screen.

You’re now in Kodi’s system settings, scroll down and select Add-Ons and then select “Unknown Sources” on the right to allow 3rd-party add-ons to be installed. Select “Yes”.

I have done this method many many times. With no problems. However I’m trying to load KODI on to a friends fire stick and all of a sudden I cannot get ADB fire to connect to the stick. I have all my steps correct any reason why? Is there something I can do to make it connect? Please help I have no idea why all of a sudden after doing so many time s I just can’t connect anymore. Thanks

A couple of things to make sure of. 1. The ADB software needs to be extracted before you run or it won’t work properly. 2. Make sure you have the correct IP address and that the Amazon FireTV Stick is on and properly connected. In my experience, most people encounter this problem by clicking on the ADB software and running it from the window that opens up. Although it may seem like it’s working, it’s not. You need to first extract the ADb software from it’s package and then run the .exe file. it will connect properly then.

I have a brand new Fire stick that won’t install Kodi… adb connects and goes through the install process…over and over again, but never writes it to the new Fire stick. It worked fine on my other two, so I have to assume that Amazon changed something in the Fire stick???

I don’t think Amazon changed anything. I would refresh the wi-fi settings, restart ADB, and reconnect to your Amazon FireTV Stick. I should mention, for some reason, it sometimes takes way longer to install Kodi on a FireTV Stick than other times. I don’t know if it has something to do with the wi-fi connection. My advice would be to do all of those steps, and then let ADB keep running until it says it’s installed. I’ve seen it cycle through the progress bar many times in one install session. Let me know if it works.

ok i downloaded the side loader app but my question is do i have to download kodi to my phone to load it from the side loader app. and if so where would i find kodi to down load through an apple phone?

I am having trouble I put in the IP address and hit save but when I click install APK it tell me no device connected. Should the stick be connected to the TV or the computer to do this? I have tried both ways yet no luck. Please help

Start over. When you first open up the adbfire download, a window should pop up. It gives you an option of clicking on an adbFire application or selecting a folder labeled “applications.” What you’re gonna want to do is drag the adbFire app onto your desktop. Then click on the app once installed to your desktop. Then proceed with the instructions. This was what worked for my Mac.

I am having the same problem as John. I had already unzipped adpfire and even tried Amazon FireTV Utility App. The IP address is correct and I tried to refresh it, restart FireTV Stick and PC. I have installed apps before on the FireTV Stick with no problems. Now that I am looking to sideload more apps there is a problem. Any help would be great.

My computer is saying “device not connected”. I’ve tried both hdmi and usb since the instructions don’t specify. I went into the computer panel and it doesn’t show up under devices on this computer. also u say to be the device is on. how so? there is no light or anything please help ! husband is desperate and having withdrawls from his dodger game lol

Your Amazon FireTV Stick can only be plugged in to an HDMI on your TV, not your computer. Your FireTV Stick also needs to be connected to the internet and you have to know the IP address. Go through the steps one more time from the beginning. This does work, I’ve done it a million times for other people.

I had the same problem. The instructions leave out the fact that you leave the HDMI side plugged to your TV, and simply move the USB from the power adapter to the USB port on your computer. This will keep the device with power (keeping it’s IP address) while allowing the data to be transferred (via USB). I hope this helps!

I am on a mac and have gone through all the steps and it says my device is not connected. I have even put in the USB drive into my computer and when I try to open install it, there is nowhere to open it with. Like what folder?

I’m on a mac. Downloaded and running the adbFire software fine. Now trying to install Kodi. It states that the device is “connected” and the progress bar seems to get to the finish line, but then restarts. Has this been resolved by anyone?

I downloaded and tried to install the ADB software and I keep getting a cannot create log file error that I have to click on 100 times. I’m on a mac and not the best with using this thing as I’m used to windows. Am I doing something wrong? it seems like its unzipped.

I’m running Kodi on my Fire Stick, everything is working fine. But my question is: Is there ANY way to play the Fire Stick on my laptop through my hdmi port? I’ve researched several sites and even called Amazon to see if there’s a way to play it on my laptop and they said it’s not possible (yet). But I know there has to be an app/hack/driver to allow this to happen. Please help. Thanks

Just use your Amazon account to install Kodi, and then before you give it to them, go to your Settings in the FireTV Stick and click Deregister account. Then they have to use their account when they use their FireTV Stick.

no…there’s nothing illegal about Kodi itself or putting it on your fire stick, much like torrenting…it’s not illegal to download all torrents, all depends on what one chooses to do with it. Kodi is an app just like any other app in the playstore, only it allows for 3rd party addon’s. as far as cease and desist letters from your ISP, that happens in torrenting because when DL’ng a movie/music torrent, your ip is exposed….if the copyright owner of it is monitoring it, they send a notification letter to your ISP who then sends you the notification. ISP’s don’t care what you do as long as youre a paying customer, so they don’t send them on their own if youre not doing anything against them. with this, your ip isn’t exposed like it is in torrenting….so technically, this is a safer bet

Ok just bought a firestick and every time I go to download the adbfire.exe and run it, it asks me if I want to update to version 1.25. I click “no” and it says my device is not running and is not connected. How do I fix this? Please help thank u.

for windows users who can’t connect try to ping the fire stick…. >Start >search “cmd” without the parenthesis and open it >type “ping xxx.xxx.x.xx” e.g: ping 192.168.2.99 >look for “ping statistics”, if it says Sent = 4, received = 4, then the stick is able to be found

load adbfire without your fire stick connected by usb. once loaded, go to “setup device” and put in your sticks ip and save it if it’s not already filled in, then click “connect”. give it some time, it’s much like connecting any other device via wifi, can take a bit to connect

Okay I was able to ping my firestick using the command prompt and all 4 packages were sent and received but adb is saying device is not connected and when i enter the information thru device set up the info i enter shows under current device but nothing shows under Connected devices

Hi guys, just got a Fire stick, do I have to register the device with a google account? Or can I use it without registering? Is there any way to side load Hulu+, NBC Sports extra? HBO? Premierleaguepass apps from New Zealand? In the uk? I have a smart dns! Thx

I’m hoping someone can help me to get SportsDevil on my Amazon Fire TV. I was able to install Kodi and adbFire just fine which was the first time trying this. I just can’t find information on using adbFire and downloading SportsDevil or if there are other files that would be great to add. I used Superreto. Any help would be great since this is the first time i’ve ever did this before.

Amazon banned Kodi and XBMC from their own app store. It wasn’t a true version of Kodi anyway as it would not have a File Manager to add the plugins and add-ons needed to stream. This method bypasses the Amazon App Store. There is no way for them to remove it from your device.

The HDMI port has nothing to do with connecting to your device. You need to connect your Amazon fireTV Stick to your internet to obtain an IP Address. Once you have the IP address, you can input that into adbFire to connect your device.

I’ve done that and it says device not connected. So I tried going through the use to the computer and I spent hours trying to get it to connect ro the fire stick. So as long as it’s connected to the Internet my laptop should detect it? Could the problem just be my laptop?

Got super repo installed. Got all the way to where I see the different folders, but according to the screen shot directions, I don’t see the oproom for all and then unzip. Please help or I’ll have to hear from husband I told you, you couldn’t do it

Hi, I downloaded the files as mentioned in the article but when I get to the section to “install APK” I realized that there are no .APK files in the kodi-14.1-Helix-armeabi-v7a folder that I unzipped from kodi-14.1-Helix-armeabi-v7a.zip. What am I missing, I feel like I’m just missing one important step. Please help.

Wow! Just incredible how many stupid people out there who 1) REFUSE to follow the instructions, which – along with some additional aid ALREADY provided in these comments – is MORE than enough perfect advice for any reasonably intelligent human to get this going. Instead so many people just beg to have their hands held. And 2) expect all this EXTRA “above and beyond” help for free!

I REALLY hope you guys that are begging for this extra help are each donating at LEAST a months worth of cable bills savings (ie a MINIMUM of $50) here. The writer is clearly taking an incredible amount of time to REPEATEDLY answer your same questions over and over again because you don’t want to read. I’d bet if you send him an email showing your $50 donation he’d be happy to help you even more. Everything can’t be “take take take,” and “me me mine mine free free.” Show some gratitude please.

hello, can anyone give me a little troubleshooting advice please? I have followed the instructions and installed kodi no probs. My issue is that I cannot access any apps on the main fire home page now? anything I click on says “The app you are looking for could not be found” Tv programs and movies stream fine…I cant get to the bottom of it so any help would be appreciated!!

ok so now that i have installed superrepo and enabled icefilm, how do i start streaming? were do i go after its installed? i went back to the home screen of the fire stick and did not see icefilms on there and i also went back into kodi and didnt see anything there either

Okay, I have followed all the direction read over all the comments and I donated what I could and I am still having trouble. When I pull up the adbFire file at the bottom it says ADB not running, how do I get it to run? If I try to install kodi the way it is, it says “install failed”. Thanks for taking the time to do all of this hard work. I’m using a pc.

I’ve read all the comments and can’t find a answer to my issue. i connect my fire stick to the wifi and when i open adbfire on my macbook and i can’t get it to connect after i enter the correct ip address… can anybody help me out ??

I had the same problem on my mac. I downloaded and deleted kodi several times before realizing I needed to use the kodi that was for android. Once I downloaded the android kodi on my mac it worked perfectly!

I am feeling very stupid. when i click the link to download the ADB Fire for Windows a separate window opens and i receive the error ‘File not found’. I was able to download the Kodi Helix file with no issues but the Windows file does not appear to be where it should.

Our dropbox account containing our adbFire downloads was terminated for excessive traffic. The links in the article were replaced to new sources. Our tests show that it is working, however if anyone has issues please let us know in the comments below and we work on an alternative.

No you don’t need an Amazon Prime account. However, this does not give you free movies and tv from Amazon. This installs 3rd party software that connects to media servers over the internet. This does not hack Amazon’s media.

Thanks! actually I decided to go with the fire TV instead. I read your other article. Once I install kodi and Xbmc on it I should be able to download add ons for free movies and shows and music, correct? Without Amazon prime? My second question is, once incompletely hack the fire TV box in my house and download the add ons, can I then take the fire TV box to any house and plug and play?

The kodi install has been looping for nearly 2 hours. I am running Windows 8 on my desktop. I added Kodi to the list of Allowed Apps with only Private checked. I did not restart the install process after doing this. Is this all I need to do regarding the firewall? Do I need to restart the install? Thanks for any help. This site has been the most useful so far.

Thank you, I think it may have been related to the firewall. I had allowed the Kodi app but turning off the Norton firewall may have helped. I do think you need to wait a while for the Kodi app to show up, though. As someone previously posted, it was like the app just appeared, when I thought I was still having trouble.

Right….. Have installed Kodi and connected to the stick without a problem. However, when I launch Kodi from the stick I get a blue circle background and there are no categories listed and nothing that I can watch.

Can’t anybody assist please?

P.S the guide above is very helpful, thank you for explaining it to technophobes like me!

Yes it will work anywhere, as long as you have an internet connection. The initial IP address is only used by adbFire to connect to your FireTV Stick to install Kodi. After that you’re all good. You can use it everywhere. Cheers!

Hi so i am having the same problem where the kodi install keeps cycling through and never succeeding. I have read through everything on this page and made sure i am doing everything correctly but it still wont load. ive tried like 20 times now. Ive restarted, taken off firewall, connected via usb, everything. And it still wont work. Any advice? Thanks! I really appreciate it and plan on making a nice donation.

Hey there. I was able to download and set up, per the directions, the ADBFire. Now the issue I am having is that when I go to select Kodi, (on the install APK button) it is grayed out in my applications folder and I am unable to proceed. I saw someone else had the same issue, but there was no response. I am using a Mac OSX if that is any help. Thanks in advance for the help and directions.

hi everyone download kodi on my fire stick with no problem,but when I launched it tv addons was installed but when I tried to open navi x or phoinex they wont open,i gave the stick to a mate of mine,he tried it at his house and it worked with no problem where am I going wrong

I am unable to connect to my fire stick with ADBfire. I tried pinging it via CMD prompt and nothing. I have a FireTV as well, and I can connect to it with no problem. Any ideas of what’s going on? I have sideloaded about 6 or 7 sticks with Kodi and never had this issue.

While this is a good step by step guide issues with ADB Fire makes it often a hit or miss affair. I found it much easier to download the KODI Android App to my mobile then download the Fire Installer app to my phone and use that to ransfer the KODI APP to my Fire TV . This worked first time and I repeated it about four times and it worked each and every time not problem . Much easier and in fact just a s quick . Once installed on the Fire TV you can even uninstall the KODI App on your phone if you do not want to use it.

Hi I have just bought brand new amazon fire stick. I tried to connect it to the tv and wifi. after setup the wifi on very next step it says login or register with the account. how do I avoid this stage?

i think you’re supposed to download the ANDROID APK install file (instead of the mac one). I’m not sure if both the ARM and x86 files work but those are the APK files you’re looking for. I’m also using a mac and had the same confusing problem.

However, clicking on Kobi icon just opens up the file and shows the files within it. It does not show any APK file so will not let me go any further. I have unzipped the file and tried again, with the same results

I’ve installed Kodi on my mac and on my fire stick using my mac, but i tried to launch the app on my fire stick and it says “This kodi package is not compatible with your device (arm vs. x86). Please check the kodi android wiki for more information.” i thought i downloaded the correct one, but maybe not? could someone list the exact person and stuff i need to download… and I’m not the most tech savvy, so please explain as if you were speaking to a 5 year old or 80 year old. lol thanks!

I am having a problem getting the audio to play out from Kodi with my Amazon Fire TV. Everything works fine with the regular amazon apps. I have been up and down on Kodi’s settings and cant get anything to work. The volume DB is at 0, the audio output is saying its getting the volume from ‘android’ i’m sure my problem is there and i need to change it to my tv speakers, but its greyed out. I even went an bought an optical cable to try and resolve it. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated since i am all out of ideas.

It keeps telling me “Device not connected” when I click on install APK. I ran a ping test on the Fire Stick and it is pinging fine. The Fire Stick is connected to my computer through USB and I also have it connected to the back of my TV via HDMI. My firewalls are also turned off and I double checked the IP address. What else can I do?

i have three brand new sticks my friends want me to jail brake . Can I jail brake them with my IP address for are three sticks ? And will they work in different locations in my same town and the same time ? Or do I have to put different IP address son each stick ? Thanks .

Has anyone had an issue with triggering eFuse while Jail breaking their FireStick? I am seeing posts about Amazon Fire TV having eFuse…but wondering if the the stick also had it. I just got mine today and plan on following these instructions.

This is probably going to be a dumb question, but here it goes…lol…I have the Amazon Fire TV Stick hooked up to my Vizio HDTV. It’s hooked up to the HDM1 3 slot, but am i supposed to have a Kodi box or something to make this work? I’ve downloaded the adbFire, but when I click on the “Install APK” button, I keep getting “Device not connected” pop up. I have my Fire stick on, and have made sure I’ve put in the right IP address. Can anyone help me, please?

I will donate $50 i promise but i’m having same problem, Install APK button, I keep getting “Device not connected” pop up. I have my Fire stick on, and have made sure I’ve put in the right IP address. Can anyone help me, please?

When is it expected to be out? thanks (Please expand on step 3. How is the stick connected to the computer. Do you put the stick into the computer or attach a computer to the TV that has the stick in it? Thanks

New to all this. Did step 1 and 2. Not sure how to do step 3. “Now that we have everything setup and in place, it’s time to connect your Fire TV Stick to your computer.” My TV is in the living room where I want the Stick to work. I’m on computer in bedroom. Do I need to connect a computer to the TV? Or Put the Fire Stick into the computer in the bedroom? Thanks!

H I so I just got the Amazon Firestick for my tv and it loads and everything is fine with it, but when i am going to select a movie and it gives me a million different options on which one to choose and i have tested mostly all of the options the resolution is terrible. Is there anyway to fix this problem because when i click HD for a movie i would very much so like to have a movie that is HD. When i click the movie it looks and sounds like it was recorded inside of a movie theater on a persons cellphone. Is there any possible way to just have HD and nothing else..

Hi, unfortunately that’s the price we pay for watching free movies. Sometimes we have to weed through a lot of bad copies. IceFilms has true HD movies and so does Exodus. There are probably more Add-ons that do a better a job with HD, but I’m not aware first hand.

I have a older laptop that doesnt have a HDMI outlet only VGA and USB can i use a converter to Install the software onto the firestick or does the computer have to be directly connected to the firestick ?

Thank you i read that in another persons reply lol … Now that i have downloaded adb and the kodi from the link provided when i enter the IP address in the designated field and press save adb doesnt detect the firestick just says in the corner ADB running any advice ?

Thank you i read that in another persons reply lol … Now that i have downloaded adb and the kodi from the link provided when i enter the IP address in the designated field and press save adb doesnt detect the firestick just says in the corner ADB running any advice ?

On the home screen of adbFire, in the top left corner, look where it says “Current Device” under that is a drop down menu. Make sure the description name of the one you added is shown there. Select it, and then click the “Connect” button. Hopefully that helps.

I had no idea what I was doing since I was trying this device for the first time. These instructions work perfectly! If you run into any issues, simply scroll through the comments section for troubleshooting advice. Good Luck! Thanks!

Yes, this will fix the “can’t create log file”. When you open the adbFire .dmg file, make sure to drag the adbFire icon into the Applications shortcut folder that is right next to it. Once adbFire has copied over to your Applications folder, open the Applications folder and open adbFire from there.

I have successfully installed Kodi as well as SuperRepo but when I search thru Iceman all of the movies chosen are blank. Is Iceman still up? If not is there a replacement add-on? Thanks for your help!

I think I have a new 1 for you sir! I have kodi up and running well, my problem is with Llama. I let adbfire load llama and asked that it also use the sacrificial ikono tv app to launch kodi. Well I was shocked to see the kodi app in recents right where I wanted it! I click it and it goes to ikono tv!!!LOL So the adbfire must of reversed my request for the sacrificial app maybe? I’m not sure wth to do now.I asked adb to remove llama and the ikono app and tried again with the same end result. Any ideas? Thanks so very much for all your work here! I don’t know where you find the patience for all the redundancy on here, you’re a good man sir. Thanks again

Thank you, I did everything in the videos now and all of the add ons seem to be working except Icefilms for some reason and that is the one I wanted the most, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but I can’t get it to work, any ideas? I wonder if I missed something.

Im trying to download adbfire to the mac (new to mac’s) I moved the icon into applications and tried opening but it is coming up “The application adbfire quit unexpectedly.” and asks to ignore or relaunch not letting me go any further.

Does this procedure only work on Apple TV’s? I was curious because the name of this website is hackmyappletv dot com. I’m ordering the Amazon Fire TV Stick this week and wanted to be sure. I have a Samsung Model UN60F8000BFXZA. Also I was curious about sound system; does this play in what ever sound system your using? I using a Yamaha RX-A3040 Receiver and Bose Speakers.

Thank you for your helpful website and I look forward to hearing back.

IceFilms is down right now. Go to your SeperRepo repository and install the 1 Channel add-on. It has everything IceFilms had and more. Also Genesis, Mashup and Phoenix are great alternatives. all of them are in SuperRepo for you to install.

How to sideload Kodi and other apps on the Fire TV Stick (or Fire TV) You won’t be able to install the Google Play Store or other apps that rely on the Google Services Framework unless you root your device, and even then there’s no guarantee everything will work perfectly. Loading Kodi. 1. Navigate to the Settings screen. 2. Scroll over to the System option and then scroll down until you see “Developer Options” and hit the select button. 3. Now flip the toggles to turn on ADB debugging and Apps from Unkown Sources. 4. Hit the back arrow on your remote to return to the System settings. 5. Scroll up until you find “About,” hit select, and then scroll down to “Network” and make note of the IP address. You cannot connect a Fire TV Stick to a PC with a USB cable(PC won’t see stick), so have to connect over WiFi, and that’s where that IP address is needed. Note: can follow the steps discussed above to connect to computer or set up Fire stick on TV and install one of the included apps in Firestick that is a file manager. Once a file manager is installed then download from google play store the app “Apps2Fire “ onto your phone ,insert the IP address you noted for the stick ,then download onto phone the kodi app and whatever repositories or programs you are interested in . Then upload same to the firestick through the Apps2Fire . Navigate to SD card(that’s what the internal memory on firestick is called) to downloads to ensure they are there and start install of Kodi (>settings>applications>Manage All Installed Applications>Scroll down until you find the app you want to launch. Select it, and choose the option for “Launch application. Once that’s done you will have to navigate to Kodi and set it up within by installing your repositories and programs from the zip files etc. Kodi forum has guides on how to these installs. The above method worked for me as the Apps2Fire worked on my phone (it may not work for all ). I spend a lot of time using methods above to try to add Kodi to stick via windows computer and found it frustrating and it worked only once (otherwise the computer registered no connection to stick so couldn’t add Kodi program). Also TVMC(advantage of preloaded programs) did not install correctly on Firestick so had to use Kodi.

So this is where I’m running into my issue. I have recently purchased a Fire Tv Stick in hopes of putting Kodi on it. I have been trying unsuccessfully for a while now. I have turned on the both of the developer options on my fire stick and correctly copied my IP Address. I have Ikono TV installed. Now this is where I run into my issue. I correctly installed adbFire 1.30 both on my Windows and Mac laptops. After inputing the Description and IP Address for the device I click Save and I can never get the IP Address to show up in the Connected devices window. Same thing on both laptops. I have tried stopping add and refreshing it, disconnecting and reconnecting but still no luck. I have even tried updating the adbFire software to 2.01 and retried everything on both systems only to have the same result. I have tried it with both the firewall on and off on both systems as well.

I’ve followed the directions, the only thing is that it’s still telling me that my fire stick is offline. How do I change or correct that to have my device read online, it’s plug up into the tv and everything, is working besides reading offline when installing the apk.

I want to upgrade to Kodi 16 and I downloaded the APK from the Kodi website, but for some reason adbfire keeps saying install failed. I’m not sure if the APK I have is the right one. Can you provide me with the correct one or let me know where I can retrieve it or let me know what I need to do different. Thanks

Can anyone help? I am stuck. I have installed the adbFire from the .exe file and entered all required information into the “Firetv and kodi companion” and clicked save. However I cannot get ADB to run, I have tried connect and reloaded and restarted many times but no luck. All appears correct with my NetGear router and the WiFi signal is very strong – any suggestions on what to do now??

Ok, so I got it to install and everything, but when I go to try and access anything I get errors, check the logs. Where are the logs located at? I tried to load Dragon Stream and Ice(program) but they error out or say that I cannot access the webstream? Or with the Ice program it says or doesnt say anything once I click on new releases for movies, it just makes a clicking sound.. Thanks in advance

That’s normal messaging for links that are broken. There are usually tons of links available for a stream. VODLOCKER is usually a reliable source. IceFilms seems to not be working lately. They may be having server issues.

Ok, I have both Kodi and adbfire installed, adbfire says it’s connected to my fire stick. When I click install APK it takes me to the select app to install window, I have located the Kodi file but I cannot click on it and make it download to fire stick whatsoever. It simply opens and allows me to look at all folders and files within the Kodi app.
